A model who alleges Kanye West choked her during the filming of a La Roux music video shoot tells BBC News that she felt “suffocated and scared” during the incident. In her account, she says West used both hands to choke her, smeared makeup on her face, and put his hands inside her mouth. The allegations are linked to what the outlets describe as a music video set.
West, according to BBC News, disputes the characterization of what happened and says the encounter was part of a “provocative theatrical performance.” The model’s statement describes the physical and emotional impact she experienced during the moment she alleges the choking occurred. The coverage presents the competing accounts without resolving the dispute, noting that the situation involves a claimed assault by the model and a different explanation offered by West. No additional court outcome or investigation details are included in the provided reports.
